In this video titled EU4 A to Z - Is This One of THE HARDEST STARTS In The Game I do a playthrough as Delhi in Europa Universalis 4 1.33 France. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Delhi, and I attempt to conquer the province and nation of Deli. So let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series.

Jay and Silent Bob strike back lol.
Already bought the Cities Skyline’s bundle when Zlewick posted on his community tab, thanks for sharing still.
show us your cities
The problem with Denmark is that it is about to have a MASSIVE update, so maybe you might consider redoing it at a later date?
How soon is about to? Because I literally just started a game.
@@prestonjones1653 next update is all we know. Ludi and zwelki(can not spell) have information about it
@@prestonjones1653 next dlc is Scandinavia and baltics. Probably in like 2 months
@Axolotl KEK Zlewki lmfao
@Axolotl bruh lol
Season D is off to a great start, can’t wait for Dhundar!
In like 3 years when we reach season S, I'd suggest "Forgive me father for I have Sindh": start as Sindh and become Curia Controller
Less annoying version: conquer the province of Roma and/or convert to Catholic
Good job.
For Denmark maybe re-establish the Danelaw in Britain or get Norsemen back on the Rurikid thrones.
It's actually pretty common for Denmark to ally Muscovy and get the Rurikovic dynasty on its throne.
The Angles originally came from Denmark to settle in England, so maybe do it again by conquering England. There's an achievement "The Iron Price" if you convert certain provinces in England to Danish culture too.
the Iron price is a reference to the Danelaw, which was a part of history where danish settlers controlled a large part of england in the viking age.
Just as I attempt to start my 5th or 6th run as Delhi to get their Achievement. Haha. For me keeping Sirhind loyal and avoiding the event isn’t hard. I just always deal with being behind in tech as I’m forced to dev all institutions. But other than that I am fine. Maybe I’m just stupid when it comes to managing my Mana lol.
Going to enjoy watching this one man!!!
Enjoy!
No need to dev all institution, you only need to dev the first 3 (excluding feudalism of course).
@@askkedladd Thanks man! I know thankfully, I meant just developing the first three. The others I can potentially spawn.
Start by giving all three Mana privileges you LL get your land back. Start with economic.
Please do Dai Viet, it does have unique ideas... I was waiting for this since the series started. Please don't skip even if it's a bit out of alphabetical order now.
They also have an achievement that could be done in an A to Z time period without too much stress with creative vassal use
I think dai viet shares nis with Annam and Tonkin so doesnt count
@@mackycabangon8945Annam and Tonkin are extensions of Dai Viet that realistically only appear by event or release
Just suggested to paradox to add more stuff to siberia including more ni sets, wish me luck as if it goes through Red Hawk would actually get to play in siberia more than twice (ainu and solon)
I just did this recently, it really helps if you make sirhind loyal and then seize their fort right away.
Yeah that’s another strat
For anyone that wants a super easy start as Delhi, start as Sirhind. When you declare your independence war, fully annex Delhi and then reform them. 2000 IQ strat and super fun.
Hahahahah also Sirhind’s ruler is a 3 star general! I played as Sirhind to Delhi to Bharat cuz I converted to Sikhism. Honestly, one of the most fun games I played.
@@gaeagaea8018 yeah for achievement runs they're both the best nation to do the Punjab / Sikh one and the Delhi one. Only problem is these days Timurids seem a lot more determined to form Mughals (so anyone reading this that's stuck literally just roll back to 1.31)
I thought it was a "daily" job for Hawk to conquer Deli as Delhi
As Denmark Conquer England, and reestablish the colonies in greenland and newfoundland
2:49 This is going to be a very, VERY painful game!
Me: Alright, this will be a very good video!
As denmark i think u should annex all of your enemies cause denmark rivals everyone
yes they rival weird countries like bohemia or hungary. Ive even seen them rival tunis
@@electrickeese236 yeah i really want to know the mindset of the denamarks ai
I love how he kept the footage going just to show the Ming Invasion fucking him up at the end. Excellent touch
Denmark has The Iron Price achievement, so how about a classic game and go for that achievement?
And for some reason, the achievement has nothing to do with the price of Iron, so that trade good won't be relevant, and a bankruptcy will be incoming.
He could delay that game for the next expansion. Since Denmark will get that pretty new mission tree.
That kinda does sound like a good idea tbh.
It’s Always a good day when Red Hawk uploads, can’t wait to see this series progress!
The sad music following the "misplacement" of heirs being cut off by Hawk is too funny!
I love these videos, always neat seeing all the different nations. I am looking forwards to a hopeful Dai Veit video.
As Delhi, you can prevent the whole Bahlul uprising event by forcing your dynasty on their throne
Did you forget about Dai Viet and Date?
As Denmark, conquer the british isles and form Scandinavia
The guy in the thumbnail is a mughal king not the king of delhi sultanate
For Dhundhar, you should form the nation you thought it was
When you get to Ethiopia, consider doing the Holy Roman Ethiopia Challenge:
As Ethiopia, migrate to Europe (bonus points if you conquer Italy - take that, Mussolini!) and join the HRE, remaining Coptic. Then, influence the electors until you become emperor of the HRE.
I always thought I sucked at this game because I always struggled with Delhi while others had some impressive runs as them. Thank you for showing me it's actually hard and I'm not just dumb. I still suck at the game but at least there's that.
"And then we throw the Dixie cup out"
That works for A to.Z
15:47 I remember i once commented that you are the best player of all time, and i stand by my word :D
Are you not doing Japanese nations? Date has unique national ideas (and pretty good ones at that) and the exist in 1444.
Yeah he skipped Chiba as well last season
They all have the same strat at the start. He will play only as Ashikaga (already), Oda and So.
Hell yeah!!! Loved this challenge.
As Denmark you should do a Kino campaign: "The Danish Girl achievement", owning the provinces of the Big Five film festivals, Cannes (it doesn't exist so Toulon or Nice maybe?), Venice, Berlin, Sundance (Salt Lake City) and Toronto (idk how's called the province for the last two)
that sounds even more painful than my idea for when he gets to the ottomans
11:35 "I really actually have no idea" - that's why you need to choose one)
25:16 you can hold shift while left-clicking and it automatically goes to 100, not over 100
Comment 12 of asking Hawk to play as a random nation of each generic idea group under every A-Z video.
How about the tea trade achievment for denmark? Just a classic achievment run
It would take a long time
@@TheRedHawk I wish you would do a full game like once a month from start to finish
@@TheRedHawk how about iron price?
@@TheRedHawk Technically, if you just focus admin and take religious ideas, you can do it within 100-ish yrs. Destroy Novgorod, ally Poland, snake thru Muscovy, then Kazan, Uzbek, Oirat, etc. All you need to do is get to the Yellow Sea or Coast of Japan. You can kill Ming or Ashikaga in one war because of your tech advantage, steal a couple of tea provinces, trade company them, buy the good produced investments and spend some diplo points in those provinces. You'll get that 10% right away!
Your A to Z is great! Thanks a lot!
I'm glad you realized you made a mistake with Janipurs peace deal, I was yelling at my screen.
In CK2, there's an achievement for owning a province in India as a Norse nation. As Denmark, own any province in India.
I suggest you wait with the Denmark episode.
As someone else mentioned, Denmark is going to get so much more flavor in the next update.
As of now, the only interesting thing to do as Denmark is to conquer England and get the Iron Price achievment.
I recently played as Denmark and while it was fun, I wish I had waited for the update, as there really wasnøt anything to do but get the achievment.
Anyways, great video as always :)
Are you not putting the nation name in the title, anymore? Great video, love your stuff.
6:51 Well... That is the challenge for that nation, conquer Manchuria xDD
As Denmark embrace your viking heritage and own the provinces of London, Holland, Genoa, Venice and Constantinople.
Delhi is one of the easier starts. Also never seen a Delhi collapse ever. I have seen multiple Jaunpur collapse, Bengal Collapse and Vijayanagar collapse.
I remember I played as them the timurids took over half of India and was like Prussia of the east and it was so hard to do anything they kept warning me and it was the 1510s
They probably were trying to form Mughals. This is a very common thing for the Timurid Ai to do if it manages to survive it's disaster event
Immediatly going for Kashmir at the first opertunity... now that is the peak indian subcontinent meta
earlier in this video, I wanted to make a comment about thinking ahead, but oh boy did 19:10 prove me wrong. I love you, Hawk
As Denmark, recreat the North Sea empire.
Control England, Norway and Denmark.
Suggestion for Dhundar you could try to make a The Office reference and conquer all paper provinces maybe?
Strengthen
Noble
Privileges
Love your videos, keep it up!
1st what about Dai Viet? It has unique ideas and is such an underated nation.
2nd…. Idk Denmark is whatever but when you do Sweden (I know it’s a long way off) do a reverse Big Blue Blob like the Dheli run where you take France as Sweden by 1550 or something
I am literally waching this from Delhi lol!
With Denmark conquer all countries with red flags and white crosses. Danzig, Riga, Verden, Savoy and Switzerland,
Could you make a guide for Bavaria in 1.33? Many things have changed since the previous one.
I know this isn't a serious min max run, but the proper way to start as Delhi, is to first make sirhind loyal, and then seize Lahore. This way you can full annex them with lower AE and get more cash from the in the one scripted war. Also get alot of allies so you can easily defeat sirhind, as their one fort of Lahore is now yours.
For Denmark, play multiplayer and rival everyone like the AI does!
I heard you can just replace their ruler and stop the event, but then you still have a huge disloyal vassal.
Maybe do the recreation of the North Sea Empire as Denmark?
You could done the French Strat here, just ally someone bordering your target (like Scotland and England) transport army, call them in while declaring, ez win without using navy.
As Denmark, try not to fall asleep
For the denmark make the danelaw but bigger?? Btw love season d up to this point
hey hawk, have you tried doing an invasion conquest in EU4?
2 suggestions for Denmark ; conquer the province of Demak in Java or recreate the Danelaw
Jay and SIlent Bob
You mean the book of the road lmao
I know, that season N is far away, but as Navarra you should do their colonising branch of the mission tree, maybe with some variation.
Love the commitment hawk! Would literally buy cities skyline just to donate to you and charity :)
What was your first idea for the Delhi game?
I forgor
I hate when I forgor things
Quantity?
No I was refering to he said he played a previous game as Delhi and then scrapped it as he didn't like the idea he had for it.
@@loganszymanski5279 ahh
As soon as I saw the ad for the humble bundle for cities skylines I went for it. Way to good to pass up on all that dlc for essentially what feels like free when I’m able to give you and charities most of the money!
21:55
Delhi: I am a Sunni Muslim Sultanate *Gets rid of church*
TIL that you can still get the rise of Bahlul event even if you destroy Delhi as someone else and reform them, like with Jaunpur
That was hella annoying
Will you be doing any of the nation's that have unique generic ideas? Some idea sets have been almost refinded out of the game where the generic ones are actually unique
Capture Vienna and move your capital to there as Denmark.
Reasoning? The Danish (Danish pastry) is actually from Austria/Vienna and are also called "Viennese bread" in Danish/Swedish.
Here's a challenge that may be interesting for a future video. I've tried it myself and failed a few times at different points, but I also just hit the 400 hour mark, so that's probably why.
Complete every age objective of every age.
I don't know if it's possible, since you need to be emperor of China and I just never got the "Take the Mandate of Heaven" CB while starting as a european nation, usually England for the Anglican faith.
To get that CB, you've got to be eastern religion and I think eastern tech group (not sur this one tho)
@@EtienneDuchesne Ohhh that makes sense. If it's just an eastern religion, that's doable I think. If it's eastern tech group, then idk if you can change those by culture shifting
@@DanjasLP only way I know to change tech group is either form Mughal or become a horde.
@@EtienneDuchesne ah man. I was hoping to become Emperor of China as England xD
Are you waiting for season T to play as a daimyo since you didnt play date and amago
What was your other idea
With Denmark I would try to restore the Danelaw by conquering England
As denmark, form skandinavia but break personal unions to norway and sweden and release Holstein at the start of the game
Is there ever a reason to use morale advisor over discipline? I always thought discipline made more of a difference but noticed you chose the morale guy over discipline
as Denmark you could be like Greenland and own every ice province
should've take deli and vassalive deli. so you got two delis
i think you should skip Denmark til after the update or comeback to it right after the update for a what if run.
Classic, cold opener of time to no CB Ming
As Denmark (after the update) become Norse, take back Byzantium and rename it Miklagard
You realy are the best eu4 player
As denmark conquer all of the most northern province like where are the penguins achievements
Does Red Hawk ever do world conquests?🤔
hawk i love seeing these vids, but i think you forgor dai viet
You should try converting to sihkism and forming punjab as a nation in india. They have some pretty good ideas and its pretty fun finishing religious ideas an getting a casus belli on literally all your neighbours. Also theres an acheivement for doing it
Maybe a bit late but see everyone says you should reintroduce the danelaw and/or conquer England. I'd say maybe conquer all starting provinces of England to make it a bit more challenging if you want to
go for Atwix legacy as Denmark, then you can compare how it feels pre update
JAY AND SILENT BOB!!!!!
I messed up. I got the humble bundle before you released your code.
Wow, the start is difficult? In just my last game off EU IV Delhi united northern India!
I dont know if its bad or not, but I always give it all to you.
Cant wait for Yaroslavl
Pain
as Denmark; form Two Sicilies
I think do Denmark after the update! do the next D in the list?
Dehli is super easy as long as you don't spark the event that causes sirhind to declare independence. All you have to do is non stop wars; as long as you are at war, the event can't fire, and if you wait till 1454 you can just instantly annex delhi in 2 months.
a Dehli-cious campaign
